In the nearly one hundred years that have elapsed since Freud's
publication of his pioneering work with "Little Hans,"
psychoanalysis has transformed not only our clinical work with
children, but has immeasurably enriched our understanding of normal
child and adolescent development as well as developmental
deviations and derailments. We have gradually come to understand
childhood and adolescence as a complex tapestry of developmental
themes, conflicts, and crises; sometimes discontinuous or discrete,
at other times, harmonious and integrated, yet always occurring
within a transactional matrix of environmental influences and
internal experience.In this transdisciplinary anthology, eight
authors explore the changing terrain of child and adolescent
psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic therapy. The contributions, which
reflect theoretical and clinical heterogeneity, are both innovative
and varied, and range from the highly abstract and theoretical to
those that consider very specific dimensions of clinical process.
Collectively, they make a compelling case for the continued
relevance of psychoanalytic ideas in the treatment of children and
adolescents. With insightful contributions by expert
psychoanalysts, clinical social workers, and clinical
psychologists, Psychoanalytic Approaches to the Treatment of
Children and Adolescents: Tradition and Transformation is essential
reading for child and adolescent therapists. Psychoanalytic
Approaches to the Treatment of Children and Adolescents will
increase your knowledge of: the function of play in normal
development--and within the treatment relationship psychoanalytic
theories and research investigations linking early object loss to
depression the nature of adolescent depression the theoretical and
clinical dimensions of a two-systems approach to understanding
psychopathology and the clinical process the dynamic meaning and
clinical management of drug and alcohol abuse, promiscuity, eating
disorders, violence, and other self-destructive behaviors the
complexities of treating children with neuropsychological deficits
